IOCCG Task Force on Remote Sensing of Marine Litter and Debris
Core Topic 3: Datasets
The Datasets core topic aims to:
- Establish protocols for high quality data collection, handling, processing and storage.
- Support and promote the gathering of relevant high quality in situ plastics data.
- Provide quality control and quality assurance of essential metadata based.
- Support and maintain a platform for collaboration, source for datasets-of-opportunity, forum for community.
- Promote open-access to long-term archived high quality and easy to merge datasets as well as open-source processing software tools.
